Florida

South Florida hot spots like the Miami area and the Florida Keys are full of amazing beaches, clubs, bars, retreats, and entertainment. The islands, peninsulas, and ports that dot the landscape of southern Florida usually offer fun, romance, and relaxation, but you can see a whole other side of them when you book one of our Florida yacht charters.

The Florida Keys are the most popular destination in the U.S. for yacht rentals. Florida goes far beyond the peninsula we all know; this curved archipelago stretches far into the ocean to the south of Florida.

This yacht charter destination offers amazing diving and snorkeling opportunities unheard of elsewhere in the continental United States, and being aboard a Florida yacht charter means you can explore it faster and better than ever before!

Why Charter a Yacht in Florida?

Vibrant Nightlife

Miami Beach is a coastal resort city known for its nightlife, and South Beach is where you’ll experience the best of it. The lounges open their doors and the VIP sections fill with an exclusive list of famous faces. Enjoy beach party cocktails, or head indoors to one of the finest night clubs in the country for a wild night of dancing.

Beautiful Beaches

Of course, there’s one reason why so many of our guests book a Miami yacht rental: Florida is famous for its beaches! There is a plethora of beaches to satisfy every guest, from a traditional beach with an old-fashioned bandstand, sidewalk cafes, and concessions to the South Beach area with its beautiful people, high-end boutiques, and a great view of cruise ships sailing out to sea.

Arts, Culture, and Architecture

The historical Art Deco District of Miami Beach boasts swanky hotels, eclectic houses, and elaborate apartment buildings. Architecture buffs can explore the area with one of several tours. Miami Beach is also a thriving art center, with galleries and museums that feature collections ranging from the Renaissance period to the present day.

Dive to a Coral Reef Within the U.S

Key Largo has a huge coral reef, which boasts a colorful array of plants and marine life. This self-proclaimed dive capital of the world attracts scuba divers from across the globe to Florida. Yacht charters can bring you to the John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park, which also happens to be America’s first underwater park.

Magnificent Sunsets

The Florida Keys boast some of the most beautiful sunsets on the planet. End your day in the Marquesas Keys, a group of uninhabited islands that are surrounded by mangroves, or Indian Key, where colors brilliantly fade from the sky.

Something Fun for Everyone

In addition to diving and snorkeling, yacht charter guests can enjoy a wide selection of other water sports, including jet skiing, fishing, canoeing, and kayaking. While in port, explore golf courses, state parks, shopping, live music, sidewalk cafes, and elegant restaurants. If you’re in Key West, head to Mallory Square for the nightly Sunset Celebration, an impromptu gathering of musicians, jugglers, and mimes every day of the week.

Because of its subtropical climate and ideal temperatures, Florida is a great destination for a yacht charter any time of the year. It’s called the Sunshine State for a reason; and you’ll enjoy blue, sunny skies year round. There are a few considerations when planning your yacht charter, but in most cases, it’s simply a matter of preference.

The high season runs from mid-December to mid-April as U.S. residents seek to escape for their local snowy weather. You’ll find more visitors around the winter months, which means may mean more company on land as you visit South Beach, Lincoln Mall, or upscale restaurants. Plan to get reservations in advance if visiting during the high season.
